President Trump’s DOJ Announces Antifa Cell Leader Gets 100 Years, ICE Attackers Get 450-Year Message
The message from President Trump’s Justice Department is hard to miss.
Shoot an officer, storm a federal immigration facility, and call yourself Antifa, and you can lose the rest of your life.
On June 23, 2026, the DOJ announced that Benjamin Hanil Song, described as the leader of a North Texas Antifa cell, was sentenced to 100 years in prison for the July 4, 2025 attack on the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas.
Seven additional defendants were sentenced alongside him, bringing the combined punishment for the eight to 450 years, all before the one-year anniversary of the attack.
The DOJ said the facility was being used by DHS to house illegal aliens awaiting deportation.
That is who these operatives went to war for.
The Justice Department, with matching FBI confirmation, said eight members of the North Texas Antifa cell were sentenced for roles in rioting, using weapons and explosives, providing material support to terrorists, obstruction, and the attempted murder of an Alvarado police officer.
The DOJ said this was the first sentencing of Antifa-affiliated defendants since President Trump’s September 2025 executive order designating the group a Domestic Terrorist Organization.
Song was convicted of the attempted murder of a law enforcement officer, making the 100-year sentence the centerpiece of the case.
The seven others named by the DOJ each drew serious time: Maricela Rueda, 70 years; Cameron Arnold, 50 years; Savanna Batten, 50 years; Zachary Evetts, 50 years; Bradford Morris, 50 years; Elizabeth Soto, 50 years; and Daniel Rolando Sanchez-Estrada, 30 years.
The trial ran 12 days, beginning February 23, 2026.
Jurors heard from 46 witnesses and reviewed more than 210 exhibits.
The evidence described by DOJ points to planning, equipment, and intent.
The DOJ said members brought 11 firearms, body armor, and 11 military-grade first aid kits stocked with tourniquets and trauma supplies to the scene.
Tourniquets and Faraday bags fit a very different plan than a peaceful march.
The DOJ said phone evidence showed participants turned off their phones or slid them into Faraday bags to avoid being located, while DNA and fingerprint evidence tied many of them to items recovered at the scene.
According to the DOJ, members shot off and threw fireworks and explosives, vandalized vehicles and a guard shack, and smashed surveillance equipment.
When correctional officers called 911, an Alvarado police officer responded.
The DOJ said Song opened fire and struck that officer in the neck.
Song fled and stayed at large until he was captured on July 15, 2025.
The FBI also pushed the case update through its official account, confirming Song and seven fellow cell members drew a combined 450 years for the terrorist attack on the ICE facility.
The work brought together FBI Dallas, Homeland Security Investigations Dallas, ATF, Texas DPS, the Alvarado Police Department, the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office, and ICE ERO.
The timing matters because the July 4 anniversary is already drawing fresh attention around federal detention facilities.
Inspired by the North Texas Antifa July 4 terror attack on the ICE facility last year, far-left extremists have announced a direct action at a federal detention facility in Tacoma, Wash. on July 4.

More accountability is still on the calendar.
The DOJ said Ines Soto was granted a continuance and is set for sentencing on July 1, 2026.
Seven others who pleaded guilty to providing material support to terrorists, Seth Sikes, Nathan Baumann, Joy Gibson, Susan Kent, Rebecca Morgan, Lynette Sharp, and John Thomas, are also scheduled for sentencing that same day.
For years, political voices on the left tried to wave Antifa away as a slogan or an idea.
The officer shot in the neck on July 4 knows better, and now so does a Texas jury.
Song will likely die behind bars, and seven of his fellow operatives are looking at decades of the same.
That is what happens when you bring guns and body armor to attack a federal facility under a Justice Department that treats it as terrorism instead of activism.
